Shackle Reversal Kits

Why install a Shackle Reversal System (S.R.S.)? Because it allows the front suspension to travel in a much more natural action when the spring compresses. In stock form (shackles in front of the front axle) when the front tire comes in contact with an obstruction, the impact is partially transmitted back to the frame via the solid rear pivot point. Reversing the pivot point to a point in front of the axle allows the impact to be better absorbed by the spring and shackle. The result is a more natural suspension flow over the obstacle. At higher speeds, a smoother ride and improved handling is noticeable, less wandering and darting are some other advantages.
